Protecting Businesses from Health & Safety Investigations
Receiving an HSE Notice of Contravention (NoC) can be a serious issue for any construction business. It signifies that an inspector has identified a material breach of health and safety law, potentially resulting in enforcement action, financial penalties, or even criminal prosecution. If your business is facing an investigation, legal advice is essential to navigate the process effectively and protect your interests.
